Even though theCall of Duty: Modern Warfarebattle royale mode still hasn’t been officially announced, various players around the world have been able to glitch into its menu and discover new information about the game. There has been an endless stream ofModern Warfarebattle royale leaks over the past few days because of this, with the latest one revealing the mode’s massive player count.

This could mean a couple of different things. One, it could mean that theModern Warfarebattle royale map is going to be especially large compared to other battle royale games. Alternatively, it’s possible that theModern Warfarebattle royale mapwill be about the same size as other games in the genre, with the higher player count meant to keep players engaged in firefights more consistently. It’s also possible that the game will use a mix of real players and bots like we’ve seen inFortnitelately, but that remains to be seen.
Needless to say, having such a high player count in a battle royale game is sure to catch the attention of genre fans who have yet to pick upCall of Duty: Modern Warfare. While not everyone enjoys the battle royale style of gameplay, this could draw in a new group of players and breathe new life intoModern Warfarein general. That’s assuming that theModern Warfarebattle royale mode is actually good, though, and that has yet to be proven.
With so many leaks about theCall of Duty: Modern Warfarebattle royale mode, it seems like it will be added to the game very soon. Infinity Ward usually releasesModern Warfareupdates on a weekly basis, so maybe fans will finally get to play the battle royale mode. And maybe part of the reason why theModern WarfareSeason 2 update file sizewas so large was because it also laid the groundwork for the battle royale mode, but that’s just speculation at this time.
Hopefully more concrete information on theModern Warfarebattle royale modecomes sooner rather than later.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
